Sony
PS-X700
(1981)
The
last Biotracer biggie.
Alas
a transitional unit and rather difficult to find nowadays, the PS-X700
was an updated PS-X75,
using the redesigned (smaller) Biotracer
tonearm and adding a neat tracking force LED display on the front
strip - not that you'd use the latter feature every day but at least
it was one more visible feature of technology :)
Unlike all other Biotracer-equipped turntables but its X75
elder, the X700 can have its VTA
adjusted through a lever at the bottom of the arm base.
The other features are inherited from the previous generations of
Sony's "X"
turntables : Magnedisc/Xtal Lock, SBMC base, gel-filled height-adjustable
feet and Linear Torque brushless/slotless BSL motor.
The PS-X700 seems to not have been
available on every market, which makes it even more difficult to
find.
